I just completed one where I traded back a bit and ended up with 49 additional picks in 2024:
R1 - 13
R2 - 7
R3 - 13
R4 - 7
R5 - 4
R6/7 - 5

I was just wondering if our new GM could do that for real his first year with the Cards?

Only you could end up with 49 picks in a seven round draft. Did you have any picks in 2023?

Sure, ended with about 8, all taken in R3 on. Kept trading all R1 and R2 picks if offered R1 pick and more in 2024.

These Cards could probably could have the first ever all rookie starting team in 2024.

I said 50% based on the fact that one restricts themselves and plays in a reasonable way, ignoring the glaring inconsistencies like the obvious absurd trade offers and just create your own per a decent value chart. I find it also a good framework for researching little known players.

And even when way below 50% they can be lots of fun and kill some boring minutes during the day.
